Valleys & Transitions
Debris or aged metal causes overflow and back-up—clean or rebuild as needed.
Penetrations

Nailing & Breakage
Exposed nails and cracked slate allow water entry; we replace and seal properly.
Underlayment
Localized failure beneath slate can require targeted underlayment replacement.
FAQ
Can you repair during light rain?
We work in safe, dry windows. Temporary protection is available if the roof is actively leaking.
Do you service synthetic/slate-look products?
Yes—let us know the brand if known; we’ll verify repair approach and availability.
When is replacement better than repair?
If widespread underlayment or flashing is failing, we’ll outline repair vs. re-roof options with pros/cons and photos.
